Figure 1.7 illustrates the extent to which countries that spend more on health have better health outcomes.
There is a clear positive association between health spending per capita and life expectancy at birth (Figure 1.7). Among the
38 OECD countries, 18 spend more and have higher life expectancy than the OECD average (top right quadrant). A further
11 countries spend less and have lower life expectancy than the OECD average (bottom left quadrant).
Of particular interest are countries that deviate from this basic relationship. Eight countries spend less than the OECD average
but achieve higher life expectancy overall (top left quadrant). This may indicate relatively good value for money of health systems,
notwithstanding the fact that many other factors also have an impact on health outcomes. These eight countries are Korea, Spain,
Italy, Israel, Portugal, Chile, Costa Rica and Slovenia. The only country in the bottom right quadrant is the United States, with
much higher spending than all other OECD countries but lower life expectancy than the OECD average.
Check out this scatterplot of health spending per capita (x axis) & life expectancy (y axis) in OECD countries (lines = averages).
The United States sits alone in the bottom right area due to its very high spending rate and below-average life expectancy.

How not to do login/sign up forms. Clicking on a read more link within LinkedIn takes me to a sign up form but I'm assuming it's a login. No where on this form does it say what this form does until I get to the blue button. I'm not making the most of my proffesional life by guessing ๐

Check out this video of trump introducing Charles Schwab. If you listen carefully, trump says that he made $2.5B while the guy next to him made $900M. This was posted by Margot Martin, special assistant to trump. The tariff stunt was, at least partially, market manipulation.

Exposing the Honey Influencer Scam
I recommend megalags YouTube channel. He doesnโt post very often but when he does the videos are an interesting watch and very well produced. Check out his latest Honey influencer scam video, nearly 15m views since 21st Dec. No more PayPal for me if I can help it

Lots of frothing at the mouth regarding the new Jaguar branding. I actually quite like it and I'm not one for rebrands. I'm not offended by the accompanying video ad either but at the same time I don't really get it. I would be more concerned that they are Land Rovers under the hood.
